A rare South Boston offering, this brick row single-family stands apart with a design more reminiscent of the South End. Across from a lush park, the home is thoughtfully curated with a focus on scale, light, and architectural detail, creating a refined, timeless feel. Spanning three levels, it features an open-concept main floor with 12-foot ceilings and new windows that flood the space with natural light. The kitchen, dining, and living areas flow seamlessly, extending to a private patio. The layout offers two true primary suites, two guest bedrooms, and a flexible office or gym. Updated systems include three-zone heating and two-zone AC (2021). A private roof deck with Brazilian Ipe wood, built-in grill, and outdoor amenities creates an ideal entertaining space. Two side-by-side garage spots complete this rare and elevated offering. For buyers seeking something beyond the typical South Boston product, this home delivers a distinctive blend of character, scale, and thoughtful design.
